The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

971. Tauren (Medium)

On the spaceship, Rush Clovis was still looking for opportunities to get on top of Padmé, even if he was wearing a seat belt, it seemed that he couldn't stop him, and his actions gradually became unscrupulous. Padmé touched the back of her hand and wanted to put her mouth out to kiss him.

Although Rock-Johnson is also sitting next to him, Clovis sees him as just a robot and doesn't matter. They have long been used to being surrounded and served by robots, so even applauding for love in front of robots is absolutely fine (sure).

Anakin Skywalker, who saw this scene in the driver's seat, was extremely annoyed. He turned his head and said to Padmé's chief guard sitting in the co-pilot seat: "Look at that guy's mouth! It's one meter long!"

The chief guard didn't know what to say, so he shrugged with a dry smile.

Anakin looked at the surveillance screen, smiled coldly, and said to himself, "Fortunately, I was prepared just now."

As he spoke, he turned on the communicator and pretended to exclaim, "Oh no! Be careful! There is an accident ahead!!" As he spoke, he abruptly turned the spaceship sideways.

At this time, before leaving the atmosphere, this sharp turn immediately caused the people in the cabin to fall to one side.

Rush Clovis was able to kiss Padmé's face with 1 centimeter of mouth, and was very upset when he was thrown away, "Is this the best pilot in the galaxy? Padmé. I think I I can send you... hey..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the seat belt that Anakin broke just now snapped off! Cloviston was thrown out and crashed into the furthest seat.

"Clovis! Be careful!" Padmé stood up subconsciously, unbuckled her seat belt and walked over to help Clovis up.

Anakin, who happened to come to the cabin, saw this scene, his eyes were blazing, and he walked forward in three steps and two steps, and said unceremoniously: "I'm sorry, sir, two spaceships collided in front of you just now, but you are lucky. Good thing the broken seat belt wasn't discovered during the crash."

As he said that, he grabbed Clovis's shoulders with both hands, and unexpectedly grabbed Clovis, who was actually quite burly, at once, and involuntarily pressed him on the seat separated from Padmé, and then knocked Knock on the seat belt, "Well, this seat is absolutely safe!"

Rush Clovis was in a daze the whole time, and could only be at the mercy of Anakin. After the other party left, he realized that he had been placed in a seat separated from Padmé, "Eh? This... This pilot is simply..."

Padmé smiled apologetically and said, "Haha, this man is a soldier, so his style is a bit aggressive, don't mind."

Who knows that her smile, in the view of Clovis, is completely comforting himself. He was fully convinced that Padmé had changed her mind and was looking forward to something more distant.

Padmé took a look at Clovis's beaming expression and knew what he was thinking.

She understands too well, with such a man, if you give them a look, they will think you are interested in him; if you talk to them, they will think it is an expression of love; if you invite them to a meal, they will start under the table I've booked a hotel room; if it's holding hands or something, that's okay, maybe I even thought of the child's name.

After the spaceship flew out of the atmosphere of Coruscant and left the gravitational circle, it activated the hyperspace engine and went to the world of wealth known for its luxury—Kato-Nimoidia.

After Rush-Clovis sent the identification code, the Trade Federation fleet on guard outside the planet let the ship go.

Anakin drove the spaceship to Bridge City, the capital of the planet Cato-Neimoidia. This is a city built on several huge bridges, with beautiful scenery and luxurious palaces.

"This is the first time for me to come to this planet..." Padmé looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window, almost intoxicated.

"Hehe, this is the world of wealth created by the Neimoidians for several centuries, and it is the most luxurious and comfortable planet in this galaxy," Clovis said.

"But... why would the Neimoidians allow you to be here?" Padme asked meaningfully.

"The Trade Federation has been owing money to our Interstellar Banking Association. In fact, many industries on this planet have been mortgaged to us and replaced with huge loans." Clovis said very proudly, and at the same time his hand And quietly wanted to put it on Padmé's slender waist.

The eyes of Anakin, who was driving the spaceship beside him, were about to burst into flames. Padmé also took into account his feelings, and quickly slapped Clovis' salty hands away.

At the same time, Padmé also asked: "There have always been rumors that the Trade Union is helping the separatists, so how much money do they ask you for a loan, and they actually want to use Cato Neimoidia's property as collateral?"

"The most recent one is 150 billion credit points. As for the use, security costs and escort costs." Clovis said.

"That's money for war."

"If you work in a bank, you need to ignore these messages, because it will make you lose justice." Clovis said, shaking his head, "For example, a person withdraws money at the bank and then goes to buy a blaster rifle , killed two people in the street. Do you want to blame the bank? Is the bank going to investigate this? So how do you define what this person will use the money for? Believe me, this will only Let you completely lose justice."

The spaceship landed in an extremely luxurious palace according to the navigation, and a group of people stepped off the spaceship.

However, a few people who came to face Padmé were taken aback, "Lot Dude? Why would the representative of the trade union appear here!"

Lot Doud was also very surprised by Padmé's visit. He pointed at Clovis angrily and said, "What the hell are you thinking?! Why did you bring the Naboo MP here!? Don't you know Is today an important meeting?! Yesterday you postponed the meeting arbitrarily, and you brought an outsider today!"

Clovis said coldly: "I'm here to visit my own property. What's the problem?"

Lott-Dude exclaimed angrily: "This is only a temporary mortgage! Temporary!"

"Let's talk about it after you find a way to pay back the money." Clovis waved his hand and ignored him.

He turned to Padmé and said, "Remember what I said yesterday? I'm making an important investment, please allow me to delay for a while, I've finished negotiating the investment-related matters, and I'll come to accompany you to experience Bridge City style."

Then, Clovis put Padmé in the mansion, and left to have a meeting with Lotte Dude.

Anakin Skywalker whispered: "Lot Dude! This person is also very suspicious. It should be said that compared with the Interstellar Banking Association, the Trade Federation's attitude towards separatism is more obvious. Now these two super With corporate giants getting so close, there must be some kind of conspiracy."

"I'll try to see if I can get some information," Padmé said.

"I'll go with you, it's dangerous here." Anakin said as he was about to walk into the palace.

However, the guards of the palace directly stopped him, "I'm sorry, my servant is not allowed to enter such an honorable place."
